PUBLIC ENEMIES
Michael Mann's experience with the topic make it all the more engaging and gripping. (Joe Bélanger)

TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN
The FX are still awesome, but they've lost their novelty factor. As for everything else, it still pretty much sucks. (KL)
6/24/2009YEAR ONE
While sometimes funny, this is more uneven and odd above anything else. (Joe Bélanger)
6/19/2009KILLSHOT
An Elmore Leonard adaptation starring Mickey Rourke as a contract killer. And this barely got released? Goddamn Weinstein Company... (KL)
6/16/2009AWAY WE GO
The kind of film that makes me wish I had someone to get out there and look for a home with. (Joe Bélanger)
6/12/2009J'AI TUÉ MA MÈRE
Xavier Dolan is definitely a promising filmmaker. But his debut remains too uneven to be entirely satisfying, as far as I'm concerned. (KL)
6/12/2009OUTLANDER
This is honestly better than all the big Hollywood blockbusters that have been released so far this summer. (KL)
6/8/2009BEST OF THE '00S, PART TWO: KILL BILL
I'd already planned to revisit KB when the news hit that David Carradine had died. Would that affect the viewing of his defining performance? (KL)
6/6/2009THE HANGOVER
Frankly, I couldn’t have cared less what happened to these guys as I wish that less guys like this actually existed. (Joe Bélanger)

TERMINATOR SALVATION
While the post-apocalyptic environment and the action sequences put together by director McG are effective, they lack a sense of fun. (KL)
5/22/2009RUDO Y CURSI
Carlos Cuarón stepped from writer on Y tu mamá también to writer/director for here and his transition is a pretty run across the field. (Joe Bélanger)
5/20/2009ANGELS & DEMONS
Distinctly more gripping than its predecessor, The Da Vinci Code. (Joe Bélanger)
5/16/2009STAR TREK
A gigantic bore for more than half its running time, but it eventually grows surprisingly involving, thanks mostly to its great cast. (KL)
